by Max Maxfield When most people hear the term “counterfeiting,” their knee-jerk reaction is to think of currency, the counterfeiting of which is as old as the concept of money itself. Around 400 BC, for example, metal coins in Greece were often counterfeited by covering a cheap-and-cheerful material with a thin layer of a more precious metal. Or take the original American colonies. Throughout northeastern America, Native Americans would employ shell beads known as wampum as a form of currency. White shells came from quahog (a large, rounded edible clam found on the Atlantic coast of North America), while blueish/purplish-black shells came from certain types of whelks (sea snails). Since the blueish/purplish-black shells were rarer, they were perceived as having a higher value. It wasn’t long before wayward traders started dipping white shells in a blueish/purplish-black dye and passing them off as the more expensive items.
